Three years
aap ki adalat latest october 2014 Reynolds understands that the idea of the great war as trenches and poems grew in significance from the 1960s, and?was soon embedded in school curricula and media representations of?the conflict (unlike in continental European countries, where the war receded in popular memory due to the?horrors and conflicts provoked by world war two). He is surely right to argue that this has narrowed the popular perspective. Schoolchildren can visit the?"trench experience" at the?Imperial War Museum; in history lessons, "empathy" is taught by getting children?to write imagined letters from a?Tommy in a trench. What Reynolds hopes for from?the commemorations is?a more historically sophisticated understanding of the course and nature?of the war in all?its aspects. Let?it be hoped that his book will contribute to that broader understanding. Let it be hoped, too, that those who objected to the war and campaigned to keep the peace are not forgotten either. The long shadow of war has all but erased these protests, but reflecting on peace might in 2014 be a?sounder option than reflecting on war.
